Defect Description:
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
The 2018 Honda Accord Hybrids suffer from a critical electrical design flaw which has left me stranded in dangerous positions on the roadside multiple times. In a normal gasoline powered vehicle, when the ignition is on, the engine is running and the alternator is generating current to charge the battery and keep it in good health. However, with Honda's Hybrid system, even with the ignition on the engine does not engage and as a result it does not keep the battery at a healthy charge. Honda could easily detect high current draw on the 12v electrical system (like a tire inflator e.g.) and start the gasoline motor when needed, but they have chosen not to do so letting the vehicle's battery drain to a dangerously low level which has other adverse effects on the car's safety systems. LKAS and TPMS systems have reported erroneous messages when this condition occurs. If there were a way to ensure the gasoline motor stayed on for roadside service tasks that would solve this issue, but currently in all modes the engine will shut off after running for a time, allowing the battery to be drained and damaged.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Potential Consequences:
I was slowly traveling up my gravel drive. As I turned to follow the drive to the right, my car suddenly accelerated. I hit the brake and after pumping the brake (like when braking on ice) my car slowed back down. I immediately searched the internet for similar complaints.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
If the car is not driven for about 5 days, it will not start. I told this to the local Honda dealer and he says I am not alone. All modern Accords do this because the computer performs a self-check every 2-3 hours and this drains the battery. If the car is not driven every couple of days this can compound and take the battery level down below the minimum needed to start the vehicle. I have been stuck twice because of this. I have had to buy a portable jump start thing and keep it in my car for when this happens. He said Honda knows about the problem but he has heard of no solution.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
Potential Consequences:
Around 7:45am full day light, clear weather, I was driving on a surface street with multiple lanes (3) going in a single direction with a center divide between the vehicles going in the opposite direction. I was traveling around 40 miles an hour there were no vehicles in front of me or beside me and no objects in the road. I had my foot on the accelerator and suddenly without any warning the Automatic Emergency Braking system engaged throwing me and contents in my vehicle forward. It felt like hard braking and clearly a malfunction of the vehicles ADAS. I felt very fortunate that no one was traveling behind me as the braking was so sudden that it could have lead to a rear-end collision. This is the second time this has occurred since owning the vehicle. The first time was 2021 and I was driving on the hwy at 75 miles an hour and the vehicles Automatic Emergency Braking system engaged. I through it was a fluke so I never reported the incident.

SEAT BELTS
Potential Consequences:
Honda issued a recall notice for repairing seat belts that fail on this vehicle, assuring customers the repair would be a quick one hour replacement. I learned from [XXX] at Findlay Honda in Las Vegas in April 2023 that this is an outright lie. Honda requires the repair facility to photograph the seat belt, submit the photos and IF it looks like it needs replacement, they will send out the parts. During this time, which can take 2 days according to Mr. [XXX], the car is forcefully sequestered and Honda will not provide a loaner car. As this renders the repair process a costly burden for the customer, Honda is assuring their customers remain at risk of death or severe injury due to failing seat belts they will not replace. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

STEERING
Potential Consequences:
My automatic braking system is activating sporadically with no apparent object in front of me. My car has suddenly come to a complete stop while driving on Market Street, York PA when there was no traffic in front or to the side of me and luckily no one behind me. The "BRAKE" alert flashed and the car literally screeched to a stop. This happened again when I was in Stewartstown, PA and was starting to go over railroad tracks, it suddenly stopped. Again, no one was in front of me or behind me. I routinely drive I-83 from York to Harrisburg 3 days a week to go to work. If this would happen to me on I-83, this would cause a serious accident. I contacted Apple Honda and was told the system is just really "touchy" and there is no fix. The person I spoke with said a leaf blowing across the road could trigger the system. I have to deactivate the anti-collision feature whenever I drive. This is a serious issue that has been around for several years according to researching the issue and Honda refuses to fix this.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
Driving on the interstate about two years ago when for no apparent reason the car suddenly braked hard. There was little traffic at the time. I assumed it was the automatic braking feature due to the display on the instrument panel. The brakes let off as suddenly as they had started. Luckily no other cars were nearby so there was little chance of being rear ended. There were no injuries or accidents as a result of this braking incident. Scared me half to death though! This has only happened the one time. The car is available for inspection as needed. I have never mentioned this to Honda as it only occurred once. There was no warning except for the simultaneous orange emergency collision warning on the instrument panel.

There was no warning except for the simultaneous orange emergency collision warning on the instrument panel.
Additional Notes:
Driving on the interstate about two years ago when for no apparent reason the car suddenly braked hard. There was little traffic at the time. I assumed it was the automatic braking feature due to the display on the instrument panel. The brakes let off as suddenly as they had started. Luckily no other cars were nearby so there was little chance of being rear ended. There were no injuries or accidents as a result of this braking incident. Scared me half to death though! This has only happened the one time. The car is available for inspection as needed. I have never mentioned this to Honda as it only occurred once. There was no warning except for the simultaneous orange emergency collision warning on the instrument panel.

Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
This has occurred on two separate dates. While using ECON mode and driving on the highway I went to accelerate to pass another vehicle and the car started shaking and the check engine light started flashing. I could no longer accelerate with traffic traveling at speeds of 70 behind me. I was able to safely maneuver my car to the should of the highway. I turned it off for a few minutes and turned it back on and it operated perfectly fine with no engine light on anymore. The second time it happened the car forced the ECON mode off while flashing the check engine light, but kept shaking until I pulled over and turned off the car for a few minutes. I will be taking it to the dealer. Had there not been a highway shoulder I would’ve had to force my way across 4 lanes on a 70mph highway while being unable to accelerate or come to a complete stop in the fast lane which is a major safety issue.
